> > The main side effects I noticed on rebox. were increased heartrate, constipation, flushing, INSOMNIA, some dry mouth. So not side-effect free, but (I think) fewer potential side-effects than desiprimine. Probably more expensive, too, when it does come out! I found that it lifted my mood somewhat, but didn't really help any with motivation, anhedonia etc--just brought me out of utter misery. Hope that was somewhat helpful... BTW, last I heard, rebox. should be available in March.

> - ScottI took reboxetine for about 10 weeks--the first 6 at 8 mg/day, then went up to 10 mg/day. I really didn't notice an effect on my mood until I went up to 10, but I heard them discussing someone else who had dramatically improved after only 2 weeks at 8, so it may just not be the drug for me. I decided to discontinue it because I wasn't getting all that much benefit, and a couple of the side-effects were starting to get to me, amongst other reasons.
